Hi Kathleen!

 

I'm catching up on my email (didn't check it even once on the last

trip, so it's pretty backed up!). While importing the Veg-Recipes

digest 126, I noticed that the Spicy Peanut Sauce was included twice,

but the Sesame Dipping Sauce you listed wasn't included. It sounds

delicious, so if you do have that one formatted, would you mind

sending it to either me or the list?

 

Thanks so much for all your sharing! I like everything you post; it

appears we have similar tastes, except I think I'm more of a

chile-head than you.

 

I'm hoping to get caught up soon so I share some recipes, too.

 

Hugs,

Ellen

I have also been asked about " murdering " plants or broccoli screaming when

you pick it (really!) on numerous occasions, and I have started replying

with an answer based on the following (in addition to pointing out that

studies of plants have never shown a nervous system that could feel pain):

" I am trying to eat a diet that has the gentlest impact on the earth,

animals, humans, etc. "

You can follow with any of the following points if necessary: Eating a

plant-based diet is the healthiest for all beings and the earth; it saves

soil, rainforests, natural resources, water, etc.; it allows for much more

food to be available for those who go hungry (if only international politics

and farm subsidies, read meat and dairy " farms, " didn't get in the way!

~sigh~); animal agriculture facts, etc., etc., I'm sure you all know all

about this stuff! ;-)

 

I read that somewhere or other and I thought it sounded great!

I'm sure there are plenty out there, but one is on my mind right now, it is

" Hope. " The story is from Farm Sanctuary, but I forget who published it...

I found it at Barnes and Noble.com once (in a gift set with a little stuffed

" Hope " ), but I actually bought it at Farm Sanctuary. It is a nicely

illustrated children's story of one of the first pigs that was rescued and

lived at Farm Sanctuary. It does touch upon the factory farm conditions and

the cruel treatment of the animals, but in a gentle way for kids.

Definitely something that could get a discussion going, if you were so

inclined. It has a marvelously happy ending and is really an adorable

story.

Just my 2 cents!

I'm just curious if there's any consideration re: gay and lesbian

singles for this and any other events in the veg community that are

specified as singles events -- given the consideration of the married

couples level of comfort at a 95% singles event, why not also speak to

it being inclusive of the 10-20% (or more in SF) of the population that

is gay and lesbian veg and single?

Of the twenty or so people who went to the organic veg. sushi dinner, at

least three were queer. I used to organize lesbian vegetarian get togethers

with a friend but we never had more than 9 women show up. I wonder if a

mixed veg. lgbt event would work out well?
